Dance
Annie Wang
Choreographer and Dancer – United States
Annie MingHao Wang (she/they) is a choreographer/dancer based in New York. Held Artist-In-Residencies at Movement Research, Topaz Arts, Marble House Project, Leimay, and the Atlantic Center for the Arts. Awarded grants by LMCC and Brooklyn Arts Council, their work has been presented by Pioneers Go East, Movement Research, Leimay, Five Myles, and the Exponential Festival. Annie also dances for Reggie Wilson/Fist and Heel Performance Group, Sugar Vendil, and Marie Lloyd Paspé.
In their newest work, Wang is building both dance phrases and textile objects in response to their research into Chinese textile histories and iconic garments like quilted jackets and qipao. The physical actions are inspired from the motions, sensations, and patterning logic of textile work. The objects will lead me into the final visual design while also driving choreographic inspiration. I’m excited for the space and time at Bogliasco to resonate with dance and objects and envision them as a whole piece.

Mireya Martinez
Filmmaker, Writer, and Producer — Mexico/United States
Mireya Martinez is a Mexican-American filmmaker, writer, and producer. Her sole pursuit is to tell and support stories that make palpable the human experience in all of its tatteredness, fragility, magnitude, and joy. A MacDowell and Sundance Institute Fellow, her work has screened at festivals worldwide including San Sebastian, Sundance, True/False, New Directors/New Films and IFFR, amongst others. She holds an MFA in Film Direction from the California Institute of the Arts.
At Bogliasco, Martinez and collaborator Alisha Tejpal will continue to write their first feature length screenplay, For the Eyes Are Blind to the Stairwells (working title). Centering its exploration on themes of micro-violence and generational collective trauma, this film offers a glimpse into the complex social fabric of urban India. In an affluent Mumbai apartment complex , the lives of residents and staff intertwine as hidden desires, social tensions, and a mysterious death unravel their carefully maintained facades.
